Spoils of a 3-day weekend

So I prewrote this post betting on the chance that Cubemate wouldnt be able to last 3 whole days of our holiday weekend to order anything. AND?  sadly i am disappointed...

This might need to be updated tomorrow morning because he is currently waiting on the lightening deal starting at 4pm!- aww fail by Amazon, it was a kids Wii game!

Welcome back from the holiday weekend! Well for some of you...

Cubemate had an unproductive weekend in terms of internet purchasing, but he has made it up today in the first few hours of work!

------

As you can tell, Cubemate has a Wii and a PS3. Oh and he has an odd fetish for Disney. As usual he cannot resist the "Gold Box" deals. So first he buys "Epic Mickey" for the Wii. Apparently he would like to paint his house in real life and then also paint in a game????

Listed in the Gold Box for $29.99  (and as always, 2 day free shipping with his Prime membership)

From Amazon     expected 1/20    DELIVERED 1/20 unopened, unused... in the BACK ROOM!

Next he evened out his game purchase buying "Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage" for PS3... (actually he fell for one of the "suggestions" when he bought the Epic Mickey game!) I don’t understand it. "Every scene and level faithfully follows the iconic visual style of the original comic series." How can the style be copied from a comic? It was just images? This is movement! Oh well...

$39.99 (sale)

From Amazon     expected 1/20  DELIVERED 1/20 unopened, unused... in the BACK ROOM!

By the time I was done typing this up, Cubemate sent me another e-mail of 3 more things he just bought!!!!

Once again, QUOTE, "for the price to see it in a theater once I can see it whenever I want in my home theater." Good thinking I guess, but that still doesn’t change the fact that it sucked ;-)

Ok... maybe rottentomatoes.com gave it a 97%... :-P
